The actual document was kindly scanned in by NNSA/NSO Nuclear Testing Archive Address - P.O. Box 98521 City - Las Vegas State - NV Zip - 89193-8521 and published for the first time here on the Internet Archive, together with some relevant documents which are appended.

Discussion of this document and how the media, fashion expedient politicians, and Jerry Corbyn's politically biased and racist, as well as ignorant and abusive so-called "Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (actually Campaign for Nuclear War, since that is what appeasement did in WWII), CND ,has suppressed the truth on nuclear deterrence: https://glasstone.blogspot.co.uk/2016/10/news-jeremy-corbyn-anti-jew-anti.html

"Apologies for the space between posts. I've carefully scanned in vital declassified UK general survival manuals which may be of use to city evacuees not only in Syria and Africa, but also closer to home, when President Clinton does what she did as Secretary of State under President Obama. The Nevada testing archive has kindly scanned in and sent me a massive document on the technical details of the highly clean nuclear tests (15% fission Zuni, 5% fission Navajo) of Operation Redwing in 1956, including new details of the capture to fission ratios and other measurements, which soon dominated the Eisenhower-Stevenson Presidential argument. At that time, Eisenhower won the debate because he was trusted to be honest with the secrets, and by God, he was honest!

"The new fallout dose maps show you'd survive with NO protection over the ENTIRE fallout area for 10 hours (time to WALK away) in a tested H-bomb with a lead pusher. I'm preparing a full review of this document in the proper context of "antinuclear" hate campaigns against safer, less escalation-prone clean nuclear weapons, but I feel I must blog some extracts here (click on image for larger view; higher quality cleaned up scans will be published in the next post on this blog, after 8 November 2016) ...

"Zuni 10 hour doses are survivable everywhere: even the highest doses directly downwind give a high chance of survival in a concrete city where the surface irregularities like concrete buildings and rubble from blast demolished brick houses will attenuate over half of the radiation. In addition, people walking away in a densely packed crowd will shield each other from almost half of the dose they would get individually, since 90% of the gamma rays are coming almost horizontally, directly from grounded fallout in the (only about 10% is downward coming, air scattered gamma rays, due to the Compton effect).

"Even if you are in a jet airliner encountering the ZUNI mushroom cloud at 60,000 feet, 7 minutes after the explosion, there is data on the radiation level you get, because America fired radiation meters with radio transmitter telemetry in rockets through the mushroom cloud at 7 and 15 minutes after the burst (aircraft only entered later, to reduce the radiation dose to human crew during the tests)...

"I'll blog about the details in that document in the next post. (Note, however, that it is the fallout patterns source cited by Terry Triffet and Philip D. LaRiviere in their monumental 1961 dated report WT-1317, Characterization of Fallout, as well as Triffet's June 1959 congressional testimony. Note that Triffet was there at Bikini in 1956, doing the measurements. Also, note that the alternative, disjointed fallout maps in the compilation DASA-1251 come merely from the ocean survey data in WT-1316, and do not reconcile all sources of fallout data into a consistent whole.)"
